    Williams over Pavlik :). I know booradley thinks Pavlik is the underdog but most boxing writers and fans are picking Pavlik by tko/ko.

    who the hell are Pacqiaou and Valuvev? :D

    from the list, its probably williams over pavlik or ward over kessler. cotto over pac is not a big upset due to the fact that cotto would be bigger and its just that pac is coming from some insane wins that's why he is the favorite.

    So you trying to say that Pacquiao last 2 wins are overrated? If so then you got a point that Cotto should be the favorite. But if you're not trying to say that then thats why many picking Pacquiao to beat Cotto cause of 2 so called great wins.

    Ward isnt beating Kessler. And Im a big Ward guy. But if he does, its the biggest upset of all the fights on the list.

    Ward over Kessler. The other fights with the excpetion of Froch/Direll, which is an easy win for Froch IMO, are toss ups. Also Kessler isnt only heavy favourite to beat Ward but to win the whole Super Six, that win for Ward will change the whole outlook of this tourney!

    I haven't seen odds since the fight got re-booked, but, I believe there were odds out when the fight was first announced and Pavlik was the ever so slight favorite. I don't think either guy winning in that fight is going to be an "upset".

    Same with Haye-Valuev.

    From a betting perspective, I believe Glen Johnson and JT are both around 4 to 1 underdogs. So, technically, if either of those happened, they would be the biggest upset. I think the most likely ones to happen are either Dirrell or Ward.

    Def Valuev over Haye since Haye talks so much crap.

    i would say either ward over Kessler or Williams over Pavlik
    Man people are crazy with the Cotto-Pac fight.
    Its like they say a great big fighter always beats a great little fighter.

    I picked Ward over Kessler, because he could beat him (solid, slick, talented young fighter with the hometown advantage), but he definitely has his work cut out for him, especially in the late rounds .
